1961 Map of Frankfort

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Frankfort serves as a dense municipal hub in this early 1960s survey, defined by its intensive intersection of major rail lines including the Monon, Pennsylvania, and the New York Chicago and St Louis railroads. The surrounding landscape of Clinton County is a structured grid of rural townships like Washington and Center, where agricultural life centers around small clusters such as Jefferson and Cambria. The meandering South Fork Wildcat Creek cuts a natural contrast across the northern half of the map, flanked by family-named landmarks like Bunnell Cem and Providence Cem. Significant civic infrastructure is evident on the city’s fringes, from the Frankfort-Clinton County Airport to the County Fairgrounds and the retirement community at Wesley Manor, illustrating the mid-century expansion of the county seat.
